Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the technical field of urea detection, and particularly relates to a urea residue detection kit and a detection method thereof. Background Art

[0002] As a representative of emerging technologies, the biopharmaceutical industry has always been the fastest-growing industry in the global pharmaceutical industry. Due to the huge development potential of biotechnology in the pharmaceutical field, genetically engineered recombinant protein drugs are widely used in various major diseases, and the market potential is huge. The Escherichia coli prokaryotic expression system is the most widely used recombinant protein expression system at present due to its clear genetic background, easy cultivation, simple operation, high expression efficiency, and low cost. Due to the too-fast expression speed of the Escherichia coli expression system and the inability of active disulfide bonds to pair correctly in time, foreign proteins often express in the form of inactive inclusion bodies in Escherichia coli. In order to obtain bioactive recombinant proteins, it is necessary to perform denaturation and renaturation operations on the recombinant proteins expressed in the form of inclusion bodies and carry out separation and purification.

[0003] Urea is a deprotonating agent that can interfere with the non-covalent interactions of proteins by forming hydrogen bonds with polar amino acid residues in proteins. This interference causes changes in the spatial structure of proteins and promotes their denaturation. In drug development and protein engineering, urea is used as a tool to study protein folding and stability.

[0004] In order to ensure protein quality, urea needs to be removed in the process. The residue of urea will not only affect the product quality but also affect the establishment of quality control methods. Therefore, it is necessary to perform quality control detection on the urea residue in the pharmaceutical process. At present, conventional urea detection kits have low sensitivity, poor durability, and unclear result display, which are not conducive to wide application.

Provide an enzyme-labeled plate conjugated with urease, mix the supernatant of the sample to be tested and the phosphate-EDTA buffer for the first reaction, and then mix with the alkaline sodium hypochlorite solution and the chromogenic solution of phenol-sodium nitroprusside for the second reaction to obtain a mixed solution;

[0054] S03. Measure the absorbance value of the mixed solution at 630 nm, and calculate the content of urea in the sample to be tested through the standard curve.

[0055] The method for detecting urea residue provided by the second aspect of the embodiments of the present application using the urea residue detection kit includes: providing a sample to be tested, removing proteins from the sample to be tested, and collecting the supernatant of the sample to be tested; providing an enzyme-labeled plate conjugated with urease, mixing the supernatant of the sample to be tested and a phosphate-EDTA buffer solution for a first reaction, and then mixing with an alkaline sodium hypochlorite solution and a chromogenic solution of phenol-sodium nitroprusside for a second reaction to obtain a mixed solution; measuring the absorbance value of the mixed solution at 630 nm, and calculating the content of urea in the sample to be tested through a standard curve. This method is based on the urea residue detection kit. Utilizing the fact that urea can be hydrolyzed by urease to produce ammonium ions (NH4+) and carbon dioxide, under the alkaline conditions provided by the phosphate-EDTA buffer solution, the chloramine generated by oxidation with sodium hypochlorite and phenol are catalyzed by sodium nitroprusside to produce blue indophenol blue. The product has a characteristic absorption peak at 630 nm. Through the change in the absorbance value, the content of urea can be accurately measured; this detection method is simple and fast, which is conducive to wide application.

[0056] In step S01, a sample to be tested is provided, proteins are removed from the sample to be tested, and the supernatant of the sample to be tested is collected.

[0057] In step S02, an enzyme-labeled plate conjugated with urease is provided, the supernatant of the sample to be tested and a phosphate-EDTA buffer solution are mixed for a first reaction, and then mixed with an alkaline sodium hypochlorite solution and a chromogenic solution of phenol-sodium nitroprusside for a second reaction to obtain a mixed solution.

[0061] S023. Incubating the enzyme-labeled plate with a urease solution to obtain an enzyme-labeled plate conjugated with urease.

[0062] In step S021, the enzyme-labeled plate is nitrated to obtain a nitrated enzyme-labeled plate. The specific steps include: treating the wells of a polyethylene ELISA plate with a newly prepared mixture of HNO3 and H2SO4 (ratio of 47:53, 250 μL / well) at room temperature for half an hour, so that NO2 groups are generated on the surface of the polystyrene well bottom plate, obtaining a nitrated enzyme-labeled plate.

[0063] In step S022, the nitrated enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) plate is washed, subjected to silanization treatment, and then cured to obtain the ELISA plate to be processed. The specific steps include: thoroughly rinsing the nitrated ELISA plate with deionized water to remove the excess acid in the wells. Then, the thoroughly rinsed plate is treated with a 1.5% aqueous solution of (3-aminopropyl)trimethoxysilane (pH 4.5) on a shaker at room temperature for 2 hours. Then, the plate is washed twice with deionized water and cured in a hot air oven at 60 °C for 2 hours to obtain the ELISA plate to be processed.

[0064] In step S023, the ELISA plate treated by incubation with urease solution is used to obtain the ELISA plate conjugated with urease.

[0065] The plate is thoroughly washed with methanol and dried at room temperature to remove any adhering impurities. Then, the ELISA plate to be processed is incubated with a freshly prepared 2% aqueous glutaraldehyde solution (250 μL per well) at room temperature for 2 hours. Then, it is washed with deionized water and incubated with a freshly prepared 0.1 mg / ml urease solution (250 μL per well) at 4 °C for 2 h to finally immobilize the enzyme, obtaining the ELISA plate conjugated with urease.

[0066] Furthermore, the supernatant of the sample to be measured is mixed with phosphate-EDTA buffer solution and then undergoes a first reaction.

[0068] Furthermore, it is mixed with alkaline sodium hypochlorite solution and the chromogenic solution of phenol-sodium nitroprusside and then undergoes a second reaction to obtain a mixed solution.

[0070] S03. Measure the absorbance value of the mixed solution at 630 nm and calculate the urea content in the sample to be measured through the standard curve.

[0071] Since urease hydrolyzes urea to produce NH4 + and CO2; under alkaline conditions, the chloramine generated by the oxidation of sodium hypochlorite and phenol are catalyzed by sodium nitroprusside to generate blue indophenol blue, and the product has a characteristic absorption peak at 630 nm. The urea content is measured through the change in absorbance value.

[0072] In some embodiments, the standard curve is constructed using urea standard solutions with concentrations of 0.5 μg / ml, 1 μg / ml, 5 μg / ml, 10 μg / ml, 25 μg / ml, 50 μg / ml, and 100 μg / ml, and the obtained linear regression equation R 2 ≥ 0.99.

[0109] In summary, the urea residue detection kit provided by the embodiments of the present application uses an enzyme-labeled plate conjugated with urease as a reaction bottom plate to adsorb the sample to be tested. Urea in the sample to be tested can be hydrolyzed by urease to produce ammonium ions (NH4+) and carbon dioxide. Under the alkaline conditions provided by the phosphate-EDTA buffer solution, the chloramine generated by the oxidation of sodium hypochlorite and phenol are catalyzed by sodium nitroferricyanide to generate blue indophenol blue. The product has a characteristic absorption peak at 630 nm, and the content of urea is determined by the change in absorbance value. The detection kit has high sensitivity, fast detection speed, clear result determination, good durability, and is conducive to wide application.

[0110] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
